“Recovery is going to take all of us,” said Pueblo County leadership. “We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has already stepped up to help their neighbors. But there is still a tremendous amount of work to be done, and we need more community involvement. This is our community, and this is the time to take care of each other.”
Additionally, from now until Labor Day, Pueblo County will pay for two additional dumpsters to support community members with the removal of debris and materials.
